SISFF International Feature Special

This year’s SISFF International Feature Special presents two films. Familiar Touch observes the world through the perspective of an elderly woman living with dementia. Rather than framing her condition with fear or pity, the film portrays a reality she constructs for herself. Ghostlight follows a family navigating grief, showing how the process of staging a play becomes a way to work through loss. Real-life family members appear in the film, adding depth and authenticity to the relationships on screen. Both films offer fresh perspectives on memory, loss, and healing.
